Chapter 331: Sishui River is difficult to cross by boat, Mo Qilin goes into the water to catch the evildoer
Li Daoxuan and others came to the Sishui River and saw the deep blue waves floating slowly. There were algae and water plants crisscrossing under the water. It was bottomless and seemed to hide many unknown dangers.
"Master, it's this river. It used to be fine. Although water corpses occasionally appeared, they were not common, and the bad guys would just get rid of them. But recently, they have appeared so frequently that the people dare not draw water for irrigation, and the canal transportation is also afraid to pass!"
The governor said with a worried look on his face that he could hardly sleep or eat because of this matter.
Li Daoxuan suddenly asked, "Where is the Bad Man? Why didn't he come?"
As Xuzhou is the central province, there should be a bad guy in charge.
The Chief Secretary sighed and replied, "To be honest, Master, the bad guy who was in charge of Xuzhou has... died in this river!"
Li Daoxuan thought of the dead Lou Xiaoyun, and his eyes sank slightly.
"Prepare the boat."
He said lightly.
The governor quickly asked, "How big a boat do you need, Master?"
"A small boat will suffice."
…
After a while, the soldiers brought a small boat, placed it by the river, and then hurried away, as if they were afraid of falling into the water.
Li Daoxuan did not board the boat, but glanced at the governor and said with a smile: "Sir, please go in."
The governor was stunned, his body trembled slightly, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.
“This…this…”
Li Daoxuan said calmly: "Sir, I said before that if you want me to take action, you need to agree to two conditions. The first condition is to buy my horse a drink. The second condition..."
Li Daoxuan pointed at the small boat and said, "Please come with me on board to exorcise the monster."
Sima couldn't help but persuade him: "Master, my master doesn't know how to exorcise demons!"
The Chief Secretary also said: "Yes, and the son of a rich man should not sit in the hall. If the Lord fails, how can we explain to the people of Xuzhou?"
Li Daoxuan laughed loudly and said, "Why, your master's life is life, but my life is not life?"
It’s not that he was deliberately making things difficult, but Li Daoxuan wanted to test whether this governor was a good official.
If he could solve the monster in the river, it would be a great achievement for the governor. Li Daoxuan didn't want to give the credit to a corrupt official for nothing.
The governor took a deep breath, his eyes revealed a hint of determination, and said: "You two don't need to say anything more, the immortal master is right, my life is life, and the lives of the people are also lives. If I can exchange my life for the stability of Xuzhou, it is worth it!"
He strode forward and stepped into the boat.
Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "You are so brave, don't worry, with me here, the only ones who will die are the demons."
After saying that, Li Daoxuan stepped into the boat, waved the Qilin whisk, and the boat moved without wind and slowly floated to the center of the river.
In an instant, countless pairs of eyes were staring at the two of them.
Not only the soldiers on the shore, but also the people on the streets.
"Look, someone dares to take a boat in the Sishui River!"
"Huh? That man is wearing an official uniform, and looks like a high-ranking official!"
"And the young man next to him should be a Taoist priest. Could he be here to help us get rid of the demon?"
"I don't think it's possible. That Taoist is too young. How powerful can he be ? Not long ago, even that bad guy died!"
The people were talking about it, and their words were full of doubt.
Mainly during this period, the government found many monks and Taoists to come here to exorcise the demons. I don’t know how many times the rituals were performed, but the results were often not satisfactory.
Those monks and Taoists looked like immortals, but they all failed in the end, let alone this young and handsome Taoist in front of him.
…
The boat sails on the water, drifting slowly.
The governor seemed very nervous, his body was stiff, and he kept looking at the river around him from time to time.
Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "Mr. Tao is drinking wine on the boat and listening to the orioles singing, and the green swallows are cutting willows and carrying purple mud. Lord Wei, how can we not drink the fine wine of Xuzhou when we are boating on the river?"
He poured a cup of wine from the Three Realms Gourd for the governor.
The governor took the wine glass with both hands, his palms trembled slightly and some wine spilled.
He was just about to drink some wine to give himself courage, when suddenly, the boat, which had been quiet till then, shook violently, as if it had been hit by something.
The wine glass in the governor's hand flew out and he almost fell into the lake. Fortunately, Li Daoxuan held his shoulder and pulled him back.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Before the governor could express his gratitude, he felt the boat under his feet being hit hard again. It became shaky and seemed about to capsize at any time.
…
The people on the shore were terrified and horrified.
At noon, the sun was shining brightly, how could the dirty stuff in the Si Shui River be so rampant?
"It's over, it's over. I'm afraid this gentleman will be killed by that Taoist priest!"
" What a pity ! This seems to be the governor, Lord Wei. He is a good official!"
Some people's families had been harmed by monsters in the river, and at this moment they could not help but kneel down and pray to God.
"God, please open your eyes and get rid of these monsters!"
There were also women who lamented, "That Taoist was so handsome, but he fell into the water and died like this, what a pity."
…
Above the Si River.
Li Daoxuan stood upright at the bow, letting the boat sway and sway, but he remained motionless.
The Luoyue Immortal Robe fluttered in the wind, like a huge flag, standing tall and unfallen.
He opened his eye between his eyebrows, looked at the bottomless Sishui River, and said calmly: "I want to see how many ghosts are hiding in this river."
Under the divine eyes, the river bottom is as clear as a hole in the sky.
"One, two, three... eight."
He sneered and said, "Just eight water corpse ghosts dare to seek death?"
He was actually a little disappointed, because it was said that more than 50,000 people were buried here, and the evil spirit was overwhelming. In addition, Zhang Laowu said that there were tens of thousands of water corpses in the river, more than the heavenly soldiers and generals.
Li Daoxuan thought he could make a fortune today, but now it seems that he was overthinking.
Water corpse ghost, also known as water monkey or falling corpse ghost, is born in a place with extremely heavy yin energy. It looks like an ape and lives in water. It is extremely powerful and as fast as lightning. It likes to drag living people underwater, block their seven orifices with mud, and use them as food.
Although its name contains the word "ghost", it actually has a physical body and a weakness: once it comes ashore, its strength and speed will drop drastically.
For a cultivator in the Qigong period, the water corpse ghosts are quite challenging. If eight of them attack together, even a cultivator in the late Qigong period may not be able to deal with them. No wonder that bad guy died here.
But for Li Daoxuan at the moment, it can only be said to be a barely sufficient way to fill the gaps between his teeth.
"Master, please help!"
The governor said anxiously.
Li Daoxuan nodded without saying anything, but threw the Qilin whisk in his hand.
The next moment, the whisk turned into a black jade unicorn, shaped like a musk deer, with a tail like a dragon and two horns on its head, looking extremely majestic!
The magic weapon Qilin Whisk can temporarily transform into a black jade Qilin, whose strength is about that of an early Yin God, and has the ability to control water.
roar!
The black jade Qilin let out a roar, and then dived into the Si Shui River, like a flying dragon entering the sea, or a tiger returning to the mountains.
The violently shaking boat suddenly became quiet.
